As a short-term replacement for the canceled RadFest that was scheduled for early November, the Radiant Panel Association will kick off its new Radiant Outfitters schools in Portland, Ore., Jan. 11-12, 2005. PM columnist John Siegenthaler will be teaching the full-day courses. The first day is Radiant Basics, which covers most of the basic knowledge needed to design and install radiant systems. The second-day Radiant Precision course is an advanced school on hydronic controls.
Each attendee is issued a Radiant Outfitters Survival Kit that includes information, references and resources - RPA training manuals, RPA Guidelines, RadPad System Sizing Calculator, troubleshooting guide, tool list, shirt, hat, patches and more.
